Top of the big era

Zhou Buqi returned to China. After all, he was too embarrassed to talk to Senior Sister Zhen Yu, so he felt helpless.

Respect is really the biggest barrier between men and women.

If he had fallen in love with a female star, it would be easy. He wouldn't even bother to say anything, so he could just attack her directly. The other party wouldn't even have time to panic, and her body would immediately go limp.

Zhen Yu's matter is still a bit complicated.

When this matter was mentioned on the plane, Xue Baoshan was very puzzled and suggested: "You should pay more attention to her and ask her for help."

Zhou Buqi shook his head frequently, "You don't understand women."

"how?"

"A middle-class woman doesn't need you to care about her at all. Only those who come from a small place and have never seen the world will be moved by the advice of asking for help, drinking more water and going to bed early."

"Really..." Xue Baoshan thought about herself and felt something was wrong. She blushed and said, "I quite like your concern."

Zhou Buqi laughed and held her in his arms, "That's because we have a relationship. There is a relationship first, and then care will have a positive effect. I don't believe you don't have a bunch of licking dogs around you who are wishful thinking. How do you feel?"

Xue Baoshan was a little shy, "No way, I don't have one."

"Really not?"

"I don't like them anyway and I never pay attention to those people."

"That's right. Sister Bao has long passed the period of being confused by the illusions created." Zhou Buqi paused, "Well... that's not right. Aunt Xue's tutoring is so good. She has been here since she was a child. To develop a confident personality in you, this little trick won’t fool you.”

Xue Baoshan bit her lip lightly, "I've been deceived by you a lot."

"How did I lie to you?"

"My mother has taught me since I was little...that I should be independent, confident, and find a dedicated and reliable husband."

"That's because you haven't met me, and Aunt Xue's knowledge is still a bit lacking. After you met me, what did Aunt Xue say? Didn't she also obey...well, didn't she also accept it?"

"Um."

Xue Baoshan nodded lightly.

Zhou Buqi sighed, "Senior Sister Zhen Yu's matter is a little troublesome. Alas, what is mine is mine after all, and it won't happen if I don't force it. Sister Bao, don't be anxious, give me some time."

Xue Baoshan was angry, ashamed and annoyed, "I'm not in a hurry. It has nothing to do with me."

Zhou Buqi said sternly: "Why doesn't it matter? Sister Bao, your consciousness is not good. I represent our Zhou family, and you are the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. You can only be of one mind with me."

Xue Baoshan said meekly: "Well, if you need my help, just tell me."

After returning home, I went home to take a shower, rest, and catch up on some sleep.

In the evening, we went to see Xu Baihui together.

She also just came back from Japan.

There is good news.

With the popularity of "The Voice Japan", the brand of the program "The Voice" has become more and more famous. TV stations in nine countries including Italy, New Zealand, Australia, Austria, and Finland have successively sent invitations, hoping to cooperate.

It's about making a choice.

Should I sell now or later?

Selling it now, because "The Voice of Japan" is a hit, the copyright fee is OK, and it can be sold at a high price. The nine countries can earn approximately US$8 million in a single season, as well as part of the subsequent sponsorship revenue share.

If you don't sell it now...then you have to wait until "The Voice UK" is broadcast in April and "The Voice America" ​​is broadcast in June. These two versions are the nuclear bomb effect.

The English department is the mainstream music trend in European and American countries.

If the British and American The Voice can also be a hit, it can be sold at a higher price, maybe from the quoted price of 8 million US dollars to 18 million or 28 million US dollars.

But once the market feedback for these two programs is not good, it will be bad. Not to mention that the price of 8 million US dollars will be greatly reduced, many countries may shrink back, and orders will disappear.

The question now is, should we choose to safely close the deal at a price of US$8 million, or should we accept some risks and wait until the British and American remakes are launched?

The copyright operator did not make the decision without authorization and handed the decision-making power back to the copyright owner, namely Jieyu Media.

For others, this choice is very difficult. If you make the wrong choice, you may lose tens of millions of dollars. For Zhou Buqi, there is really no difficulty.

"Then press it."

"Waiting for "The Voice UK" to be launched?"

"No, wait until "The Voice" comes online. Don't worry, I have already said that this model will definitely work. The turnaround system is just like the blind box. This is the mechanism of gambling, and it can be used all over the world. Also The "King of Masked Singer" I told you about last time is also a gambling mechanism, and this routine can also kill people all over the world."

Zhou Buqi made his judgment easily.

Xu Baihui rolled her eyes at him and said thoughtfully: "Football and basketball games are so popular, is there a gambling mechanism in them?"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Yes, almost. Fans all hope that their team will win, but the result is unknown. This mechanism is exactly the same as "The Voice". Including if you watch "Millionaire", the most popular variety show in Britain and the United States, Even answering questions to win bonuses is actually the uncertainty mechanism of gambling.”

Xu Baihui said: "So the "I Am a Singer" you told me last time cannot be promoted to overseas markets, but "The King of Masked Singer" can. In addition to the issues of copyright and singer's worth, the program mechanism is not enough to support all mankind. commonalities.”

Zhou Buqi gave a thumbs up, "The answer is correct."

“It’s also applicable to filming movies and TV series.”

"Absolutely. For example, if you make a TV series about a game, the winner wins 1 million, and the loser loses his life. This is very global and may spread across cultural classes."

"It's impossible to film something so violent."

Xu Baihui glanced at the corner of her mouth.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Don't be discouraged. Jieyu Media is going to open its doors to the world. I'm actively helping you contact EMI Records. When the time comes, overseas business will start. If you can't film domestically, go abroad." Let’s take pictures.”

Xu Baihui said coquettishly: "Boss Zhou, don't paint a pie for me, it's not that easy." Then she remembered something and said: "By the way, the little girl you fell in love with last time, she said She is going to study at Nortel. She will take the art exam after the Spring Festival. She is not yet an adult, not yet 17 years old. She may not be admitted at such a young age."

Zhou Buqi said sternly: "I just think she has a good idea. She can make money for Jieyu Media and can be cultivated. Age is not a problem. Liu Yufei was also 16 years old when she studied at Nortel. You can find someone to run it. You need to water it. Apply fertilizer so that the young seedlings can grow vigorously.”

Xu Baihui curled her lips, "Leave the task of going to Nortel to me. It's up to you to water and fertilize."

Sister Bao was still there, so Zhou Buqi didn't want to talk nonsense to her. He coughed twice, and then quickly changed the topic and talked about the music industry.

After Terra Firma Capital acquired EMI Records, it split off many assets and sold them. Among them, the business in Greater China was sold to Zheng Donghai, and it became the current gold medal Dafeng Entertainment.

This company controls almost half of the song copyrights and popular singers in the Chinese-speaking region. If it wants to win EMI Records, the gold medal must be taken back.

…

Spring Festival is coming soon.

Grandpa and my parents have returned to their hometown in the Northeast to distribute money to some relatives of the same clan who are beyond their reach. Grandpa enjoys this process.

Zhou Buqi will not participate.

His reputation is too great and his influence is too great. As soon as he comes forward, media reporters from all over the world will get wind of it. He once participated and had to rely on the power of the police to control the situation and maintain stability. Old men and women from other villages were rushing here in farm vehicles. The scene was a bit scary.

The folk customs in the Northeast are a bit tough.

That night, Zhou Buqi went to Yang Mi's apartment and called Jiang Bingjie and Li Xinwan. He mainly said that he should take more care of Dilireya, and that he should take care of her as a younger sister, care more, and greet her more.

This kind of little girl who came from the frontier and has not seen much of the world is the most susceptible to this trick and establishes the relationship between sisters. After a few years, when you have grown up, this method will no longer work.

Zhou Buqi stopped playing in person and delegated the tasks.

No way, too busy.

Senior Sister Zhen Yu's side is enough of a headache. There is also a little secretary Ning Lu beside her who is eagerly waiting for things to come to fruition. Boss Zhou expresses that he does not have enough energy.

After the clouds and rain dispersed, I went to take a bath and received a call from my grandfather.

"grandfather?"

"where?"

"I'm in the capital. I just finished some very important work."

"When are you coming back?"

"In a few days, we have to wait until the end of the year." As a big boss, Zhou Buqi can't go home for the holidays early to celebrate the New Year. He should at least stay with the senior executives for a few more days.

The old man told him, "Let me tell you something. The provincial leaders came over and said that a Dongyang pharmaceutical company is having difficulty operating. See if you can think of a solution."

"Again?" Zhou Buqi was speechless, "Grandpa, let's not get involved in this matter. The leaders have told me several times."

"Huh?" The old man frowned slightly, "The conditions given are very good."

Zhou Buqi said: "It's not a matter of good conditions. It's a state-owned enterprise. How can I participate? With 70,000 employees, it's already a zombie company."

"Can't you change it?"

"It can be changed or it can't be changed. It's a state-owned enterprise. What do you want me to do? Let me take the lead in promoting the reform of state-owned enterprises? It's okay if it fails. At most, it means losing some money. Once it succeeds, I won't be criticized by anyone?"

The old man has been in business all his life, dealing with politics and business, and has experienced ups and downs. He immediately understood the meaning of his little grandson's words and sighed, "You are right. This pharmaceutical company has become a burden. It costs several dollars every year." billions of dollars of finance to pay wages.”

Zhou Buqi had a headache, "Grandpa, even if I want to change this matter, I can find some people to inject capital and reform private enterprises, but it still can't be changed. This is an industry matter. I specifically asked this question when I went to the UK this time. Well, Europe and the United States... not the United Kingdom, but all developed countries in Europe and the United States, they only have two to three hundred pharmaceutical companies in total. There are more than two hundred pharmaceutical companies in our small county. Do you think I can participate in this matter? "

The old man was silent for a while and said slowly: "Well, as long as you have an idea."
